Well.
I remember you entering the Fortress. Then I remember you not being there, or showing for only brief spurts or departing when it looked ugly. I don't seek to criticize, but you didn't seem as fond of being in the Fortress as you had likely imagined.

A good part of being in the Fortres, is counting your own corpses and learning that you are leaving less of them about...or not. It's learning if you have the heart for it.

I wish you the best on your next.
